If you purchased the book(s) from Amazon, they should be able to send you azw3 - ask customer service.
Blotchy lighting with shadows?
That was a problem with the first run of the PW-1.
On the PW-3, that is a defective Kindle - tell customer service about it, they should be willing to replace it. (Buying it on sale doesn't change that.)

If by that you mean a K3 model (not a K1 or K2, which also have a keyboard). - - -
If you purchased the book(s) **before** the K3 firmware was updated to handle azw3, then the Amazon distribution system will be sending you azw format books.
(Also, if you still have the K3 set as your 'default' device.)
Do -
- Check your account, see that the default device is your PW-3, not your K3.
(This should be optional, but it may not be.)
- Update your K3 to the most recent firmware (3.4.2 - which handles azw3).
If it is jail broken, follow any jb instructions about preserving or replacing you jb.
Sorry, device is too old, I don't recall the procedure - just check the 'legacy' jb thread header.
- Remove one of the Amazon azw books and then re-download it from your account (with the K3, not with your PC).
Again, device too old for me to recall the 'HowTo' do that on a K3.
- Did that result in the book being updated to the latest publication and in the azw3 format?
(I have never checked if the K3-3.4.2 firmware sends your firmware build id to the Amazon distribution 'bot so that you get the most recent supported book format. I have checked the PW-3, it is sending the firmware build id with the download request.)
- Did all of that get you an azw3 formatted book?
No - same as above - contact Amazon Customer Service.
